It doesn't take much alcohol at all for people to 'put on their beer goggles', according to a new study.If you're heading out to have a few drinks tonight, you might be interested to know that a new study has found that the popular joke about"having beer goggles," which is when we find people more attractive when we're drunk, may actually be true.
Unlike previous studies on the effects of alcohol, the test was conducted in the bars and pubs around the university campus rather than a lab setting, and participants were not asked to self-report on who they found attractive, which can produce inconsistent results, but were instead asked to complete a test on a computer while either drunk or sober.
"We know that attractive faces can pull attention away from the task at hand, but our research suggests that alcohol has the capacity to lessen this effect; to level the playing field."
